I wanted to undertake a top-level MSc in Financial Mathematics in order to facilitate a career transition into a quantitative role within the financial sector. Warwick has a world-class reputation on both the Business side and the Mathematics / Statistics side, so choosing this course at WBS was a no-brainer. I have learned so many new and specialised skills, taught in small class sizes by expert lecturers.

The WBS name goes a long way, I managed to secure myself a job at one of the world’s largest hedge funds just two months after my course had begun. I truly feel that this Masters equips me fully with the knowledge and skills I need to achieve my full potential in the quantitative finance industry.

I play in the University Symphony Orchestra, and I have participated in Warwick’s Opera and Musical Theatre productions. There is so much going on around campus; there is certainly something for everyone.

After working in the finance industry with HSBC for two years I wanted to further my studies in the area of Financial Mathematics. WBS – with its positive, international reputation, was an obvious choice and I was not disappointed.

The course offered a well-balanced mixture of material relevant to the industry and professional support was always available along the way. While the course was extensive, I found that the covered material was very helpful for me to now further pursue my studies at a Doctoral level.

Besides the academic side, I was also really impressed by the Careers Service that is offered by WBS which focuses on helping and motivating every student to be fully ready for the job market.

WBS is well ranked and has a good reputation. I spoke to people in industry who recommended it highly, and a graduate whose response was extremely positive and encouraging. I was hoping for an intellectual challenge, good course material relevant to industry, and job opportunities – I was not disappointed. It was certainly taught at a high level, there were helpful careers fairs and company presentations, and the careers service was very good.

I signed a contract with Morgan Stanley before I left so WBS had already helped me to get the job that I wanted and put me in a good position to progress quickly.
